The despicable scapegoating of Marco Rubio at the #MarchForOurLives

First of all, this reporter is either being deliberately misleading or doesn’t understand how campaign finance laws work. That “$3 million” figure is over the course of Rubio’s two-decade-long career as an elected official and the vast majority of it is not donations to his campaign at all, but independent PAC money the NRA spent on ads, expenditures which Rubio has no legal ability to control or even communicate with the NRA in an effort to influence. It’s inaccurate to say Rubio “received” this money.

Secondly, to insinuate that Rubio took even a penny in exchange for “student’s lives” is absolutely vile. Rubio and his wife Jeanette Rubio have four children of their own that they love dearly and have never wished harm on anyone else’s children.

Then there were the many signs carried by protesters that targeted Rubio.
